Table 9. Results of two goodness-of-fit tests, the Fisher Exact test and a linear regression between predicted and actual number of takes. The null hypothesis was H0: number of predicted takes within a seasonal management unit = the number of actual takes in that seasonal management unit. When the p-value of the Fisher Exact test is greater than 0.05 then we are not able to reject the H0. The larger the value of R2 of the linear regression, the better the fit.
